Team X-mas Dinner

This is my first Christmas Dinner with the B4F-team I've been working for for almost 6 weeks. It feels like being part of the team for more than just a short time, so hanging out with mostly girls I was actually looking forward to.




We ended up having fondue, note to myself and others....it actually can be dangerous, who would have thought. Well, next time I'm bringing an apron. Anyway, it was a brilliant evening with lots of laughter and getting to know each other from a different perspective.

A Day at the "Neues Museum"

Living in the capital city means there are plenty of choices when it comes to leisure time and how to fill it. This Sunday I decided to check out the Neues Museum. It's almost winter over here which limits the possibilities considering the cold weather.



The Neues Museum on Berlin’s Museum Island is part of the world heritage. It houses the archaeological collections of the Egyptian Museum and Papyrus Collection, the Museum of Pre- and Early History, as well as works from the Collection of Classical Antiquities.



Looking at all the treasures from different cultures which are hundreds if not thousands of years old is impressive and hard to comprehend. What was actually possible back then and how well preserved those exhibited items are, unreal.



There is just so much to see and explore that a day alone is just not enough and I will definitely come back for more....maybe next time it will be the "Altes Museum".
